  • I have spent my life designing teaching curriculums to help my students enjoy their musical journey to it’s fullest. My curricula have 100's of chapters - all of which have material that could months to years to work through. And with that, I have a plan for all the major styles of playing. Each of these hold a lifetime of materials to explore and enjoy. It's important to me that we find the right path for each student to express themselves. And that is what sums up my teaching philosophy. Different types of students play different types of music, and it is my passion to be prepared with the best strategy for a lifetime of enjoying this journey.
